Many people don’t realize the amount of work, training, dedication and money that is involved in being an artist. One artist can spend hundreds to thousands of dollars just to create, frame, display, and market their art for an art show for the masses to enjoy, but the artist is often left holding the bill. As a community, we can change and empower our artists to become great, to prosper from the very gift that blesses so many, and to become successful at what they know how to do best: CREATE ART and in turn continue to generate the benefits our community receives from a thriving art scene such as:

enliven communities

inspire and enlighten people everyday

create & maintain jobs

increase tax revenue

stimulate tourism and growth

So the answer to the previous question: Do you know what artists are doing to your city?! is: They are making your city a better place to live 🙂

35 artists are participating in this event and over 300 entries have been submitted. All works are on paper, either approx. 4″x6″ for $20 or approx. 8″x10″ for $50. These will make perfect unique gifts that can fit in anyone’s price range. Each piece is done anonymously & signed on the back, the identity of the artist is kept secret till the purchase is made, hence the Guess Who?! part 🙂

Works will be available for sale during December 1st WEDNESDAY ARTwalk from 5P-9p (at both locations 31 W. Adams & 229 N. Hogan) or join us for the opening reception SATURDAY, December 4th from 6P-9P at TAC II Studios located at 229 N. Hogan.

THANK YOU TO ALL THE ARTISTS WHO CONTINUE TO PUSH THROUGH ALL THE OBSTACLES AND CONTINUE TO FIND WAYS TO CREATE AND TO ALL WHO HELP BRING AWARENESS & SUPPORT TO OUR THRIVING ART SCENE.
